Krug

Craftsmanship and Distillation

Krug’s meticulous winemaking process sets it apart from even the finest champagnes. The house sources grapes from the best vineyards in the Champagne region, blending more than 120 individual wines from over a decade’s worth of vintages. Each parcel is vinified separately in small oak casks, allowing each wine’s unique character to develop. This labor-intensive approach ensures unmatched depth, complexity, and consistency—a testament to the brand’s philosophy that every Krug should be the best expression of champagne possible.

Aroma & Bouquet

Krug is celebrated for its astonishing aromatic profile. Each pour reveals multiple layers: ripe orchard fruits, candied citrus, toasted brioche, almonds, and hints of honey. Underlying notes of spices, hazelnuts, and delicate floral tones add intrigue, inviting the drinker to discover more with each swirl of the glass. The bouquet is rich yet precise, offering a sensory prelude to the complexity awaiting on the palate.

Smooth & Finish

On the palate, Krug delivers a luxurious mouthfeel—creamy, vibrant, and impeccably balanced. The effervescence is fine and persistent, carrying flavors of fresh fruit, roasted nuts, and a whisper of minerality. The finish is long, elegant, and layered, with lingering notes that evolve gracefully, making every sip memorable. It’s a champagne that invites savoring, not rushing.

Awards and Recognition

Krug has consistently earned top scores and critical acclaim from wine critics and connoisseurs worldwide. The brand is frequently awarded high ratings from Wine Spectator, Decanter, and Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate. These accolades reflect not only the exceptional quality but also Krug’s enduring influence in shaping the prestige champagne category.

Who Is It For?

Krug is tailored for discerning wine lovers, collectors, and those who view champagne as more than a celebratory drink—it’s for those who consider it a work of art. Whether marking life’s milestones, indulging in a fine dining experience, or simply appreciating the pinnacle of winemaking craft, Krug resonates with those who demand nothing but the best.
